oscil — A simple oscillator.
oscil reads table ifn sequentially and repeatedly at a frequency xcps. The amplitude is scaled by xamp.
ifn -- (optional) function table number. Requires a wrap-around guard point. The table number defaults to -1 which indicates a sinewave.
iphs (optional, default=0) -- initial phase of sampling, expressed as a fraction of a cycle (0 to 1). A negative value will cause phase initialization to be skipped. The default value is 0.
kamp, xamp -- amplitude
kcps, xcps -- frequency in cycles per second.
The oscil opcode generates periodic control (or audio) signals consisting of the value of kamp (xamp) times the value returned from control rate (audio rate) sampling of a stored function table. The internal phase is simultaneously advanced in accordance with the kcps or xcps input value.
Table ifn is incrementally sampled modulo the table length and the value obtained is multiplied by amp.
If you need to change the oscillator table with a k-rate signal, you can use oscilikt.
Here is an example of the oscil opcode. It uses the file oscil.csd.
